Car guy checking in. I think Teslas are cool and all, but trains are the future. I want trains to be so good that people would rather take them so that people like me, who care a lot about driving, get to drive. And people who would rather read a book or play a game while commuting aren't forced to drive when they clearly don't want to.

I have a 1997 Prelude Type SH manual. And I'm looking to replace my 2012 auto Civic with an 8th Gen Accord LX manual because I really missed driving stick daily and want a cheap manual I can daily.

100% this. I'm passionately on the other end of the spectrum, where a car's entire purpose is to get me from A to B without fanfare, prestige, or hassle. Also needs the birds eye camera because fuck parallel parking. Trains are a better way to do all that. And we should be moving more good with trains. Trucks are expensive and should be last mile exclusively.

The problem for most people is that trains, and other public transport, don't take you from doorstep to doorstep. God help us all if we have to walk 1/4 mile to a stop. There is also politics preventing it, at least in America.

Civic? A car you can trust.

You can ev swap ice cars and keep the manual transmission. It's actually the easiest way to swap to electric. I've always wanted to try it but it's pretty pricey

[–] Stez827@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 months ago

Yeah but you get less power no range and the transmission just adds inefficiency

It's actually the easiest way to swap to electric.

Eh, I feel like that way is still narrowly edged out in terms of ease by trading in your ICE vehicle for an EV at a dealership.
